Behavior Analyst and sleep educator extraordinaire Emily Varon joins me in Session 247 to talk about how to understand sleep problems in children.
In this episode, we cover how she first got interested in the area of sleep
intervention, what research and resources she used to expand her scope of competence in this area, how sleep challenges can be met without using extinction, sleep problems specific to individuals with Autism, the impact of screentime on sleep disruption, cultural considerations for practices like co-sleeping, the importance of bedtime routines, and whether wearable devices are actually helpful.
You can learn more about Emily's work in this area, get free "sleep kit," and
participate in continuing education events at Emily's website, Ready Set Sleep.
